Run, do not walk, to see this film, 6 April 2006
10/10
Author: wallace2039 (wallace2039@aol.com) from United States

I was fortunate enough to view Johnny Montana at the San Francisco Indie Festival, and was totally blown away by it. Rarely have I seen a more authentic depiction of New York City, in both the visual shots of city locations, or in the characters portrayed in the film. Having grown up in New York, I have known many similar people as those in this film, and I can say with complete certainty that these are the most authentic NYC characters I have ever seen on film. Films such as Pope of Greenwich Village, Mean Streets, and Lords of Flatbush pale in comparison with Johnny Montana when it comes to capturing the grittiness and realism of the city. I was also impressed with the music in this film, which effectively draws you into the story and holds you transfixed until the very end.

To sum up, if you love films, see Johnny Montana. It will restore your faith in film as art.
